Recommendations (rating 1-10, details):
Teacher Rec #1: My AP Lang Teacher, she was the best person ever, and she always noted my willingness to contribute to discussion when everyone else wanted to be silent. Hopefully she will have a lot to write about (8-9)
Teacher Rec #2: Physics Teacher/Robotics Coach, she knows me really well from class and robotics but I sucked at her class, but I head she writes the best Recs in the school so it felt like a shoe in (7-8, but honestly idk)
Counselor Rec: I have talked to her several times throughout high school, and she really notes my willingness to be well balanced in everything I do. This is probably the best one. (9-9.5)
Additional Rec: From Band Teacher, knows me really well (7-8) and from the provost of UT Martin, writing about me from Gov School. Would look good bc he’s in the university world (8.5)
Interview: Yes, interviewed wth Dean of Admissions, was really relaxed conversation and I thought it went really well.

Intended Major: Government/Political Science, possible double major in engineering

Hooks (URM, first generation college, etc.): Not really sure. Perhaps being an Eagle Scout, or my activities being something I’ve done from a long time
